Watching the weather channel the other day, one of the meteorologists was talking about a think tank that meterologists had back in the 1950s to try and get rid of hurricanes.
The most popular choice to destroy a hurricane was to drop an Atom Bomb in the middle of the storm.
??????????
They really thought that one through.

I was surprised to hear that hair brain idea, too.
what...... you don't think it would get rid of the hurricane???
Of course it would get rid of the hurricane.
Along with a good percentage of the human race, oceanic life, and breathable air.
isn't that the rub? the solution to almost any problem carries with it its own consequences......
Wow. A radioactive hurricane! Now that's a clever idea.
I remember a story line from Star Trek where they had tornado nets....
I have a solution: a hurricane, is it a clock-wise twist? Just blow the wind counter-clock-wise, and they will zero each other out.

I wonder why I didn't get a Nobel prize yet...
I read the other day that some guy wants to fly a 747 into a hurricane and have it drop some kind of super-absorbent powder, thereby sucking up all the moisture...
